1990 Smith Woodhouse LBV Port

Post by John Danza »

  • 1990 Smith Woodhouse Porto Late Bottled Vintage - Portugal, Douro, Porto (2/9/2013)
    Popped and poured. Light reddish brown in color, much more healthy looking than I expected. There was no alcohol heat at all, surprising given that it had no air time. The nose is a bit muted but started to open up after about 30 minutes. Overall this was a really nice drink that was in much better shape than I expected. Definitely fully mature and should be drunk now, but don't worry about it being dead. (90 pts.)

You've gotta love the value you get from a 23 year old LBV!
Ambition driven by passion, rather than money, is as strong an elixir as is Port. http://www.fortheloveofport.com
